Our red and white Strawberries & Cream bunting is so far in 4th place with 97 votes (at the time of writing this post) - Thank you to all 97 gorgeous people who have voted for us :) but if I can do my math correctly I reckon with 1 vote from every blog follower here we could turn the 4th place into a 2nd or 3rd place!.... what do you reckon??

My decorated envelope (I actually got out the kids good old Crayola crayons for this one) is all sealed up with some little goodies inside and stamped ready to go in the post and head to Pip.

Have no idea what I am on about?? Check out the blog post with all the in's and out's HERE but the basic idea is... A bunch of people are sending a decorated envelope to Meet Me At Mike's in Victoria with some small trinkets inside... Pip will then collect up all the goodies from inside the envelopes and hang all the envelopes in the Meet Me At Mike's shop window... after the six weeks One VERY lucky envelope will be chosen from the bunch and that person will receive ALL the fabulous little things that were sent to Pip - Yay!

Just check out the things you could possibly receive if your envelope is the chosen one

Thanks so much to Kate of Sambelina for sharing some snaps of Giggleberry bunting in action at her little boy's train themed party.

You might remember from HERE Kate asked me to make custom bunting to match the Sambelina Choo-Choo Train invites for her little guy's 3rd birthday party. The red and sky blue colour palette was so fun to work with for the banner and Kate did an AMAZING job on every little detail for the day!!

Two of my close girlfriends are about to head off overseas! One is taking her first international holiday and heading round the words for a few weeks, the other friend is moving to Manchester for at least 12 months - lucky ducks!On the weekend just gone a handful of our friends got together over a casual lunch to say Bon Voyage and wish them well. So I thought it would be a bit of fun to take along some yummy travel themed sweets.

I made some airplane and globe shaped cookies and also made a few cupcakes that I placed in wrappers I made from old atlas pages and poked in some cupcake toppers I made using THESE printable traveler's party circles. For a bit of extra fun I used my little girls mini suitcase to serve them in - very cute!I had also spotted a little while ago some gorgeous sewn paper cards made with old atlas pages by Moonmum so grabbed one to write a little farewell note to each of the travelers.

I've got the best job in the world - wife to my wonderful hubby and mummy to 3 busy bees.
I fill my week with Giggleberry Creations - handmade fabric bunting banners, plus all kinds of other things! There is a good chance you'll get to read about it here... So make yourself comfy, sit back and enjoy!
